Review for Park Labrea Apartments

From Sept 2006 until I finally moved out of this apartment in May 2009, I had at least 12 rats running around in my apartment, and many more living in the walls, making noises. The exterminators would come and set traps all over and I would have to live with traps and with dead, or sometimes living, rats, caught in the traps. Finally, some rats appear to have died in the walls (when the furnace came on, I could smell the rat burning), and this brought in swarms of flies. These flies were huge because they were obviously living off the dead rats in the walls. The flies were swarming throughout my apartment until I finally had to move out a couple of weeks before my lease ended because the apartment was uninhabitable. Throughout all this, Park La Brea refused to compensate me for periods of time when I had to move out while rats were in my apartment. They also demanded that I pay rent for the 2 weeks left on my lease after I was forced to move out. At this point, they were apparently tired of my "complaints," and treated me like a nuisance. They did not seem to think that a rat and fly infested apartment was such a problem. One manager stated, "well, this is California, what do you expect." Prior to living in this apartment, I lived in another Park La Brea apartment that was infested with roaches and water bugs. Living in Park LaBrea has some good points, but overall it was a nightmare for me and, worst of all, nobody seemed to care.
